Sad shit.

For those with children, hug them, love them, appreciate them. With in a blink of an eye - they can be taken. I have a teenager and this shit right here is disturbing.

Sickening truly

And in a public business in fucking NYC. How many witnesses didn't do nothing but pull their phone out? God damn. That's some Kitty Genovese shit.

See why we need immigration.

All dem niggas brown

I mean yeah that’s fucked up, but no way that shit was random

Mistaken identity. Was random. KId looked like the kid they had a hit out for.

Apparently the kid they were looking for had filmed the sister to one of the gang members getting fucked and posted it on social media. This innocent kid looked like the kid in the video and they attacked him. Very sad.
@Innovator - all Dominican. Yet people hate mexicans lol... Mind blowing.

its still not random tho.....like they weren't just out wildin without a purpose is the point

unjustifiable regardless

True, in that sense - yea it wasn't random. Just random for the victim, I guess.

The fact that he ran to the hospital while his jugular was leaking trying to get help and screaming for help - while 2 nurses walked by in their scrubs still is sickening.

All kinds of videos surfacing on it. A video shows the entire thing from when they walked up to him, punched him - knocking him down to the ground and dragging him out so all could run up and stab and chop him with a machete.

agree its fucked

It’s def fucked
Nobody helps
This is America
Don’t catch you slippin nah

old.

@dead man on my life I just started reading the 2nd chapter in this psych textbook for my class this week and it opens up w Kitty Genovese

synchronicity on tap

Truly sad and terrible. And that’s not America that’s NYC. All those gang members will be caught and brought to justice smh if they really killed the wrong guy.

Not if, they did kill the wrong KID.

Are you reading the social animal?

Where it uses kitty as the anecdote for the social bystander effect?

Is that shit real?
I don’t believe in it
Doesn’t the social bystander effect directly contradict the idea of the Good Samaritan @veritas?

I have read the social animal its one of my favorites.

the text book Im currently reading though is Understanding Psychology 13e

but word I mean they've done several social experiments that ultimately determined that the larger the crowd of bystanders the lower the likelihood of someone intervening because they assume someone else will...........if its just one person or two its more likely they will help because they feel like no one else can

Great question Jude.

The Good Samaritan needs two checkboxes to overwhelm the social bystander effect.

1. Not a large number of people (I.e. just one Good Samaritan. I.e. this man needs my help there is no one else who can help)

2. The feeling of competence (I.e. this man appears to be having a heart attack and I am nurse I can help him versus this man is having a medical issue and I don’t know what to do I hope someone else on this subway is a doctor)


Great question

Yovthey reported the gang leader sent an apology to the family

Surreal

Shit yah'll just hearing about this?
